The haunted Horton Mine. Did I really explore that abandoned mine ten years ago? Sure did! To commemorate the 10 year anniversary of my first visit to the Horton Mine, I got together with Justin from ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@ABANDONEDUNDERGROUND9 ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠, Todd from ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@ZiaMountainAdventures , and ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠Joe from ​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@OnTheNextEpisode to explore its flooded cousin that only a few people have been brave enough (or insane enough) to venture into. And boy oh boy – she is much bigger and more dangerous than he ever was! What has kept her out of the limelight is the fact that she’s deeply tucked away high on a rugged canyon wall by herself at the end of a barely visible, washed-out road. In fact, we discovered a fallen tree across the road that blocked our steep ascent to the mine. Therefore, we had to park and hike the rest of the way in.

Unlike the Horton Mine, her main haulage tunnel is at least a half a mile long with some extensive drifts tunnels leading off of it. Like the Horton Mine, she has an ore pass at the very back that connects to an extensive upper mine. As we explored, we came across creepy black ooze coming out of the tunnel walls, leftover mining artifacts from long ago, fantastically colored veins of ore, unusual mineral formations, and a lot of knee-deep water everywhere!
